    Why is there a bug?

    Hi all, I get an error message when I run this code, can anyone tell me why? Have printed the error messages at the bottom

    Code:
    main()
    {
      double x;
      double y;
      scanf("%f", &x);
      scanf("%f", &y);
      
      printf("f(x,y)=%f", f(x, y));
      return 0;
    }
    
    double f(double dumx, double dumy)
    {
      double result; 
     result = (-(3.0*dumy)-(dumx*dumx)+(dumx/3.0)*(1.0/3.0));
    return result;
    }
    warning: type mismatch with previous implicit declaration
    warning: previous implicit declaration of `f'
    warning: `f' was previously implicitly declared to return `int

    Thanks for the reply, have changed it to this but now when I run it, it will only let me make one input and always returns a value of 0. Does it need a big overhaul?

    Code:
    double f(double dumx, double dumy);
    
    main()
    {
      double x;
      double y;
      scanf("%f", &y);
      scanf("&f", &x);
      printf("f(x,y)=%f", f(x, y));
      return 0;
    }
    
    double f(double dumx, double dumy)
    {
      double result; 
     result = (-(3.0*dumy)-(dumx*dumx)+(dumx/3.0)*(1.0/3.0));
    return result;
    }
